The Mt Carmel Kid

January 26, 2017

The Mt Carmel Kid is our school profile of the skills, dispositions and attitudes we want our graduate students to leave with. The ‘Kid’ was developed during discussions with the teachers, BOT and parents of Mt Carmel. The profile states:

  • I set goals, seek challenges and solve problems
  • I show love, care and respect for myself, others and God’s world
  • I live my Catholic faith and I am learning to be like Jesus
  • I serve people in our community
  • I am a learner wherever and whenever I can be
  • I strive to be positive and happy
  • I am self-confident, strong and resilient
  • I strive to be the best I can be
  • I show creativity, imagination and innovation
  • I am a collaborative team member who listens to others and contributes my own ideas
  • I am kind, caring and inclusive

The Mt Carmel Kid is a major focus for our students. It is not a technically a graduate profile but rather a profile we all work at from Year 1 through to Year 6. The statements are discussed in class and playground, and teased out as to what they might look like and sound like for students at varying age levels. By cultivating these wide range of traits, our students will be building the key resources of a confident learner with a strong Catholic identity that will serve them well as they move from Mt Carmel to their college education.
